Freddie Highmore also starred in another film about a secret land of little people in the movie Arthur and the Invisibles. Siblings learn to overlook their differences and work together while playing a board game called Zathura, which suddenly flings the family into the far reaches of the universe. Many of the magical creatures depicted in this film (such as boggarts and griffins) can also be found in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.
